Description

Join us, One Real Engineer & The Other, and learn from the inside on how to translate your prior (and valuable!) experience into the field of software engineering. In this course you will learn specific framing techniques and how to sell your past experience in a way that will 'Wow' the next hiring team. You will do this by learning in a reduced guidance style (high guidance at first, and then less to allow the skills to flourish) the following techniques:

  • The 'Dig Deeper' method - make the other people want to talk to you (a great place to be!)

  • The 'Wow them' method - be so good and have the 'Wow' factor that they can't not pay attention

  • The 'Constrained yet Successful' method - show that you work under constraint and how it can even breed exceptional results

  • The 'Soft Skills Translator' method - showcase the critical and rare skills lacking in our field

These are proven techniques and you will be able to interact with the two instructors and get real and detailed feedback. This course will propel you toward a career in the software engineering field while giving you the confidence and selling skills needed to land your next role. Let's go!

Who this course is for:

  • Professionals who want to land a Software Engineering role but don't have any specific experience yet.
  • Professionals who want to re-brand themselves and shine when talking about experience.
